are they going to give each eagle a tag with a number in it ?

Who the heck are these morons ?

Yep, windmills slice and dice them and solar towers fry them.

Wind was blowing, time stood still

Eagle flew out of the night

He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing, stretching every nerve

I had to listen had no choice
I did not believe the information
I just had to trust imagination

My heart going boom, boom, boom
Son, he said, grab your things I’ve come to take you home.

“So much for Democrats being the party of wildlife preservation.”

And for feminists caring about women’s rights during a muslim presidency.

Dams must be removed to protect the fish. Damn the birds; there’s more graft in windmills.

How many of their sacred lands, rich in uranium and other resources, have been declared federal protected entities?

The Natives have good reason to be upset as they get back of the hand B+tch slapped by a liberal socialist agenda.

Exactly...The EPA caused breech and toxic spill of the Gold King Mine into the Animas river that runs through a reservation downstream was a huge disaster. The EPA didn’t even bother to inform the tribe that the toxic waste was on the way and then they refused to pay the full cost of damages and clean up.

These wind farm fields of death seem to be the modern version of the ancient Asherah groves.

That is, they are poles erected en masse, consecrated for the worship of a foreign deity variously called Gaia, environmentalism, or Green this or that. Soaring eagles - the very symbol of freedom, strength, and *power* - are the blood sacrifices to their god of destruction.

They've popped up everywhere, are a blight on the landscape, and what they supposedly produce in electrical power is only intended to provide cover for their true [rotten, evil] fruit: torture and death of the innocent.

Woe to those who put red for green and green for red.

Fish and Wildlife Service Director Dan Ashe said the proposal will "provide a path forward" for maintaining eagle populations while also spurring development of a pollution-free energy source that's intended to ease global warming, a cornerstone of President Barack Obama's energy plan.

No wonder they are obsessed with easing global warming... they are desperate to avoid their own fate: a 5000 degree furnace of their own making. Those who truly care for God's creation can at least know that those who live by the bird blender will die by the bird blender. Yikes, but seeing that these Green energy believers are so intent...

Thank you for referencing that article jazusamo. As usual, please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

Patriots, unless Congress has purchased the land in question under the terms of the Constitution’s Clause 17 of Section 8 of Article I, or under the eminent domain clause of the 5th Amendment, or the land is somehow federal territory, then the feds have no constitutional authority to do what lawless Obama wants to do with the wind farms imo.

And even if the states had given the feds the specific constitutional authority to do what Obama wants to do with the wind farms, it remains that the POTUS has only the constitutional authority to either sign or veto bills from Congress. So this issue arguably means means that corrupt Congress is letting the lawless Obama Administration get away with stealing legislative branch powers, possibly to do all the unpopular, things that the RINO-controlled Congress wants to do, but actually has no constitution authority to do so.

In other words, by letting last-term Obama get away with stealing legislative branch powers, both state and federal, to do its dirty work, corrupt lawmakers are able to keep their voting records clean. And by keeping their voting records clean, lawmakers are able to fool low-information patriots into reelecting them. (Patriots need to reconsider the 22nd Amendment imo.)

Also note that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution the specific power to either define or protect endangered animal species. So if patriots want “the government” to protect animal species then patriots need to first work with their state lawmakers to do so with their 10th Amendment powers, or amend the Constitution to actually give the feds such power, the feds always able to do a better job (arc).

Insights, corrections welcome.

Remember in November !

So if patriots elect Trump, or whatever conservative they elect, they will also need to elect a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will work within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers to support the president, and also protect the states from unconstitutional federal government overreach as evidenced by this wind farm issue.

In fact, note that such a Congress will also probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices who likewise help to empower bad-apple presidents to do unconstitutional things.

They have been quite rewarding for some crony capitalists. For the rest of us, not a good thing.

The Chicago Mob has handled it well.

Of course P.E.T.A. and others of a like kind will be filling documents against this action in courts around the country at 9AM in the morning.
